This is a convenience function that isolates the user from the details of details of storage. The behaviour depends on the type of object.
  • advobjects: the times for the velocity observations are returned as a vector of POSIX times.
  • adpobjects: by default, the times of velocity observations are returned. This is also the case ifwhich=1is supplied in the...list. Ifwhich=2is supplied in the...list, the times at which heading was measured are returned; for some instruments, these are not the same as the velocity times.

A vector of times.

library(oce) data(adp) cat("the first time is:", format(time(adp)[1]), "")

Similar accessor functions are heading, pitch, roll, and velocity.
